Should I buy this for 2.5? 26k miles, did all the fluids but primary fluid leaks from the gasket owner says. I heard early evo lifters go out and stuff but any advice?

FXLRST Lowers
Put a set of lower fairings on my 24 Low Rider ST. So far I’m really liking them. Can’t decide if I like the look of the low stock windshield now, my 10” Klock Werks windshield, or if I should split the difference and get the 8” Klock Werks.

New rims
I am considering new rims for my 2020 Slim. What do you think? Original, thick black or thick chrome? Other suggestions are welcome. I kind of like the thick chrome, but it may be a bit much.

FXST oil seal replacement
Recently had my right fork's oil seal go. I figured it'd be a way more complicated fix. Suprised it went smoothly.

Advise / Suggestions
Hi folks, I’ve got a 2007 Softail that’s covered in wrinkle black & matt black paint/powder-coating. I don’t like having her cleaned or detailed by others caz I’m very protective and careful with her, that’s why she’s in peak condition and hasn’t given me any issues over the years.
I’m looking for advise and suggestions on:
(1) homemade degreaser
(2) something to bring the wrinkle black back to life. I know there’s products out there that do this but I don’t have access to US products either ca it’s costly or not brought in (I’m europe based). The local HD dealer doesn’t sell the engine black spray either caz they make you bring your bike in instead sell it so you can do it at home.
I’ve seen online people using water+dish soap+baking soda OR water+dish soap+vinegar mixtures for degreasing, and I was wondering what people’s experience has been with these? Also what can bring the wrinkle black back to life.
Thanks in advance, ride safe everyone 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼

1994 heritage softail classic swing arm cover
Hey everyone-I bought some swingarm covers for my heritage. It said that it was the right fit online, but for some reason I can’t figure out how it attaches, as it’s very different from the original OEM brackets. Does anyone have some instructions on this install? There are no available instructions online or any that came with the parts. Attaching photos.

Clutch cable adjustment
Hello all,
Wondering if someone could help me on a problem I’m having. I got a 2017 deluxe with a 103. I got the bike in April. I changed my bars to 14” apes and installed LA Choppers clutch cable. While I had to open up the trans cover I installed the mueller 2.0.
The issue I’m having after installing everything is I can’t get any slack in the cable no matter what I do. The lever won’t collapse. Im trying to get slack so I can adjust the clutch from the basket inside the primary. I did take the lever off the bike by removing the perch clamps and even after removing the lever I had to pull on it so hard I thought it was going to break something. Something isn’t right. Anyone have this issue before?

Running lights issue
So i just realized that my rear running lights on my 2006 heritage classic aren't working. The front running lights are on, the rear turn signals and brake lamps flash. The bulb filaments are good, as are all fuses. I'm thinking maybe a damaged wire? Anyone have some insight?

Just picked this up last week
It’s a 2020 and had…..110 miles.
Guy before me did quite a bit to it and just didn’t ride it.
He traded it in on a new bike at the local dealership and it’s mine now.

Looking for advice. 2004 softail deuce CVO parts
Got a screaming deal on a CVO deuce that had a wrecked front end and missing the tank. Having a hell of a time finding parts for it tho since the CVO had the dual calipers in the front.
Any suggestions on where to find parts or suitable swaps? eBay has been less than helpful even.

Weight limit on the twin cam softails?
Just wondering what the weight limit is on the ol softails? It’s lowered and rides on the bump stops anyway. Any issues long term? Should I upgrade the shocks or raise them up a bit? Usually run the rear air pressure about 34psi on commander 2’s.

Time to maybe switch it up
Last year I did 5,200 miles in 3 weeks (Route 66) and next week I will have completed 4k miles in about 3 weeks (Indianapolis to Key West and back via state roads). All this on my ‘05 Deuce. I have never considered myself a bagger person but am considering something a little more distance friendly but still handles like the Deuce. What are the collective thoughts?
